Any people with H1B visas and transferring to other agencies? Need to know a bit more about the process and would love some insight. Just very afraid to even start looking if the process is really bad

A transfer is pretty simple but if you work for me can we talk first?

Be very careful with ANY change to am H-1B. The current administration is playing all kinds of games and actively cutting visa durations. Just make sure you do your homework before you ask for or submit any changes.

The transfer isn’t bad, I did it a few years ago. Some companies will make you sign something to say you’ll stay with them for a certain time period or have to pay them back the legal cost of the transfer.

From when I received the job offer to when the transfer got approved to allow me to resign from my job at the time it took about 2 months 😬
